He is God

After I was done with Tuesday's entry, I spent some time praying.  I brought my needs before the Lord and was reminded once again by the soundtrack in my head that I was unworthy of His help.

As the tears fell, I was brought back to the truth of God's heart.  He is bigger than my sin.  Bigger than my unworthiness. I was reminded again of the truth that He helps because He loves not because I deserve it.  What a sweet God we serve.

We don't deserve anything but death.  But our Father is so loving, so merciful, and so wonderful He stoops to help us as His children.  He picks us up and carries us in His arms through the difficulties of life.  We may not understand the way He chooses, but we can trust the one who carries us.

Thank You Lord.  Let me stop forgetting it's not about who I am but about Who You are.  It's not about what I have done, do, or will do, but about what You've done for me and the heart You have for Your creations.  I pray for all of us, because I know that I am not the only one who struggles with this "worthiness" syndrome....that we would all know nothing we do or have done is above Who You are or out of the loving reach of Your heart.  In Jesus our Savior, Amen.

Let's take our eyes off ourselves and keep them on the Lord.
